Work out the height of a parallelogram with a base of 10m and an area of 60m2

1 answer:

3 0

Area formula of a parallelogram is
A = base x height

Given are the
Area = 60 m² and base = 10 m

Substitute the given:

60 = 10h (divide by 10 to find value of h)
$\frac{60}{10} = \frac{10h}{10}$ (10 and 10 cancels out)

h = 6
The height of a parallelogram with a base of 10m and an area of 60m² is 6m

According to a survey, 18% of the car owners said that they get the maintenance service done on their cars according to the sche

Annette [7]

Answer:

a) For this case we define the random variable X="number of car owners in a random sample of 12 who get the maintenance service done on their cars according to the schedule recommended by the auto company". And for this case the distribution for X is:

$X \sim Binom (n =12, p=0.18)$

And the possible values for the random variable are X=0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12

b) Using the probability mass function we got:

$P(X=3)=(12C3)(0.18)^3 (1-0.18)^{12-3}=0.21506$

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

A Bernoulli trial is "a random experiment with exactly two possible outcomes, "success" and "failure", in which the probability of success is the same every time the experiment is conducted". And this experiment is a particular case of the binomial experiment.

The binomial distribution is a "DISCRETE probability distribution that summarizes the probability that a value will take one of two independent values under a given set of parameters. The assumptions for the binomial distribution are that there is only one outcome for each trial, each trial has the same probability of success, and each trial is mutually exclusive, or independent of each other".

The probability mass function for the Binomial distribution is given as:

$P(X)=(nCx)(p)^x (1-p)^{n-x}$

Where (nCx) means combinatory and it's given by this formula:

$nCx=\frac{n!}{(n-x)! x!}$

Solution to the problem

Part a

For this case we define the random variable X="number of car owners in a random sample of 12 who get the maintenance service done on their cars according to the schedule recommended by the auto company". And for this case the distribution for X is:

$X \sim Binom (n =12, p=0.18)$

And the possible values for the random variable are X=0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12

Part b

Find to 3 decimal places the probability that exactly 3 car owners in a random sample of 12 get the maintenance service done on their cars according to the schedule recommended by the auto company.

Using the probability mass function we got:

$P(X=3)=(12C3)(0.18)^3 (1-0.18)^{12-3}=0.21506$

Suppose the function h(x)=2x-9 is translated up 5 united to become a new function, i(x). what the equation of the new function?

andreyandreev [35.5K]

Option B

i(x) = 2x - 4 is the equation of the new function

Solution:

Given that the function h(x) = 2x-9 is translated up 5 united to become a new function, i(x)

To find: Equation of new function

The graph of a function can be moved up, down, left, or right by adding to or subtracting from the output or the input.

Adding to the output of a function moves the graph up

Therefore,

Given function is:

h(x) = 2x - 9

Translated up by 5 units

Therefore, new function is:

i(x) = h(x) + 5

i(x) = 2x - 9 + 5

i(x) = 2x - 4

Thus Option B is correct

What does b represent in the equation of a line in the form y = mx + b?

Dvinal [7]

B is called "the vertical intercept" and is the value of y when x = 0. Something like an initial value!
